Are you in severe debt?

Hi all
I am a journalism a student at City University and am currently doing a project on debt in Britain. For the project I am looking for people who are in serious debt, this can be thousands of pounds on loans, credit cards, store cards or even gambling addicts. The person should be able to speak about their debt and not mind being recorded as it is for a radio project. Just to add it is for a University project and will not be published anywhere. If you don't mind speaking about your debt but would like to conceal your identity I can change your name for the recording. If you think you could help me out please reply to this thread or send me a message. I would really appreciate your help. Thanks, Mala Mistry.

Thanks Red,
Something good has to come out of this.
I was ignorant about money ('not knowing , due to lack of education') and I am now on a VERY steep learning curve. I would not wish what I am going through on anyone.
